The selloff could have been triggered by strong US economic data and concerns about tariff policies under President-elect Donald Trump.
Altcoins also suffered losses, with Cardano (ADA), Solana (SOL), and Avalanche (AVAX) leading declines.
Bitcoin's dramatic two-day plunge has rattled the
crypto market, erasing nearly all of its early 2025 gains and sparking a fresh
wave of investor anxiety.
Amid fears of rising inflation, surging bond yields,
and potential US tariff policies under the incoming administration, Bitcoin
fell to a low of $92,900 today (Wednesday), leaving traders debating
its next move.
Fed Policy and Tariff Concerns
The selloff began earlier this week as strong US
economic data caused fears that the Federal Reserve might maintain a hawkish
stance longer than anticipated, CNBC reported.
The 10-year US Treasury yield surged, pressuring risk
assets across the board. Bitcoin, which briefly traded above $102,000 on
Monday, plunged nearly 5% in the daily chart. At the time of publication,
the price was $94, 361, down 2% in the past day.

Among altcoins, Cardano's ADA, Solana (SOL), and
Avalanche (AVAX) led losses. Cardano (ADA) currently trades at $0.921,
representing an 8% decline in the past day. SOL, DOGE, and AVAX are down 4%,
5%, and 6%, respectively.
Minutes from the Federal Reserve's recent policy
meeting reportedly highlighted rising concerns about inflationary pressures. Additionally,
uncertainty surrounding President-elect Donald Trump's potential tariff
policies has reportedly added to market jitters.
These factors have traders reevaluating expectations
for 2025, with rate cuts potentially fewer than previously anticipated.
Historically, rate cuts have buoyed Bitcoin prices, while rate hikes have had
the opposite effect. Any signs of delayed cuts could hinder Bitcoin's
upward trajectory, keeping traders on edge.
Long-Term Prospects
Bitcoin's long-term prospects remain tied to broader
adoption, regulatory clarity, and technological innovation. With 2024 marking
significant milestones such as spot ETF approvals and institutional adoption,
investors remain cautiously optimistic about Bitcoin's role in portfolios.
Technically, BTC is facing a downward price momentum.
The cryptocurrency could find support at $91,829. Currently, it trades below the 50-moving average but remains above the 200-moving average.

On the daily price chart, the Relative Strength Index is at 44, meaning the price is above the oversold zone and could drop further before the trend changes.
For now, market participants will watch for upcoming
economic data and Trump's inauguration for cues. While uncertainty looms,
Bitcoin's resilience in past downturns offers a glimmer of hope for traders
seeking a rebound.

Executive Interview | Dor Eligula | Co-Founder & Chief Business Officer, BridgeWise | FMLS:25
In this session, Jonathan Fine form Ultimate Group speaks with Dor Eligula from Bridgewise, a fast-growing AI-powered research and analytics firm supporting brokers and exchanges worldwide.
We start with Dor’s reaction to the Summit and then move to broker growth and the quick wins brokers often overlook. Dor shares where he sees “blue ocean” growth across Asian markets and how local client behaviour shapes demand.
We also discuss the rollout of AI across investment research. Dor gives real examples of how automation and human judgment meet at Bridgewise — including moments when analysts corrected AI output, and times when AI prevented an error.
We close with a practical question: how retail investors can actually use AI without falling into common traps.

Brendan Callan joined us fresh off the Summit’s most anticipated debate: “Is Prop Trading Good for the Industry?” Brendan argued against the motion — and the audience voted him the winner.
In this interview, Brendan explains the reasoning behind his position. He walks through the message he believes many firms avoid: that the current prop trading model is too dependent on fees, too loose on risk, and too confusing for retail audiences.
We discuss why he thinks the model grew fast, why it may run into walls, and what he believes is needed for a cleaner, more responsible version of prop trading.
This is Brendan at his frankest — sharp, grounded, and very clear about what changes are overdue.
